Ecologix E-DAF System: Advanced Dissolved Air Flotation Engineered and Manufactured in the USA
A deep dive into Ecologix's innovative industrial water treatment solution.
Understanding the Ecologix E-DAF System
The Ecologix E-DAF system utilizes the proven principle of Dissolved Air Flotation. This process works by dissolving air under pressure into a recycle stream of treated water. This pressurized, air-saturated water is then introduced into the DAF tank, where it is released at atmospheric pressure. The sudden pressure drop causes millions of microscopic air bubbles to form. These tiny bubbles attach to suspended solids, fats, oils, and greases (FOG), and other low-density contaminants, causing them to float to the surface. A skimming mechanism then removes the accumulated float material, leaving clarified water.

A distinguishing characteristic of the Ecologix E-DAF system is its engineering and manufacturing base in the United States. Located in Alpharetta, Georgia, Ecologix designs and builds these systems domestically. This "Made in USA" aspect carries several benefits for industrial operators:
- Stringent Quality Control: Manufacturing in the U.S. typically involves adherence to rigorous quality standards and control processes, potentially leading to more consistent and reliable equipment.
- Reliable Supply Chain: Domestic manufacturing can translate to a more resilient supply chain, offering quicker access to spare parts, components, and replacement units. This minimizes potential downtime and ensures operational continuity for critical industrial processes.
- Accessible Technical Support and Service: With engineering and manufacturing teams based in the U.S., clients can benefit from readily available technical support, field service, and expertise to assist with installation, commissioning, optimization, and troubleshooting.
- Economic Impact: Choosing US-engineered and manufactured equipment supports domestic jobs and contributes to the American economy, aligning with "Buy American" initiatives often favored by public and private entities.
- Regulatory Compliance: Systems designed and built in the USA are typically developed with a deep understanding of relevant U.S. environmental regulations and industrial standards, potentially simplifying compliance for end-users.
Versatile Applications Across Diverse Industries
The Ecologix E-DAF system is a versatile solution applicable across a broad spectrum of industrial wastewater treatment challenges. Its effectiveness in removing FOG, Total Suspended Solids (TSS), and reducing Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) makes it suitable for:
- Food & Beverage Industry: Addressing high concentrations of FOG and suspended solids from processing operations (e.g., dairies, meat and poultry processing, bakeries, breweries, candy manufacturing).
- Oil & Gas: Treating produced water and frac water by removing oils, suspended solids, and other contaminants. Ecologix has also pioneered mobile DAF technology for these applications.
- Pulp & Paper: Removing suspended solids, color, and BOD from wastewater generated during paper production.
- Automotive Industry: Handling wastewater from various processes, including E-Coat paint lines.
- Mining & Metals: Delivering integrated water and wastewater treatment systems for cleaning metals-laden wastewater, including iron removal.
- Municipal Wastewater Treatment: Providing custom technologies and services for municipalities, recognizing their unique needs for flexible and cost-effective solutions.
- Other industries served include Biodiesel, and Power Plants.
